Explanation:
If you could look at Venus with radar eyes -
this is what you might see.
This computer reconstruction of the surface of
Venus was created from data from the
Magellan spacecraft.
Magellan orbited
Venus
and used radar to map our
neighboring planet's
surface between 1990 and 1994.
Magellan found many interesting surface features,
including the
large circular domes,
typically 25-kilometers across, that are depicted above.
Volcanism
is thought to have created the
domes, although the
precise mechanism remains unknown.
Venus'
surface is so hot and hostile that no
surface probe
has lasted more than a few minutes.
